11:008:024 Who hast kept with thy servant David my
father that thou
promisedst
him: thou spakest also with thy mouth, and hast
fulfilled
it with thine hand, as it is this day.
11:008:025 Therefore now, lord God of Israel,
keep with thy servant David
my
father that thou promisedst him, saying, There shall
not
fail
thee a man in my sight to sit on the throne of Israel;
so
that
thy children take heed to their way, that they walk
before
me as thou hast walked before me.
11:008:026 And now, O God of Israel, let thy word,
I pray thee, be
verified,
which thou spakest unto thy servant David my father.
11:008:027 But will God indeed dwell on the earth?
behold, the heaven and
heaven
of heavens cannot contain thee; how much less this
house
that I have builded?
11:008:028 Yet have thou respect unto the prayer of
thy servant, and to
his
supplication, O lord my God, to hearken unto the
cry and
to
the prayer, which thy servant prayeth before thee to
day:
11:008:029 That thine eyes may be open toward this
house night and day,
even
toward the place of which thou hast said, My name shall
be
there: that thou mayest hearken unto the prayer
which thy
servant
shall make toward this place.
11:008:030 And hearken thou to the supplication of
thy servant, and of
thy
people Israel, when they shall pray toward this place:
and
hear
thou in heaven thy dwelling place: and when thou
hearest,
forgive.
11:008:031 If any man trespass against his neighbour,
and an oath be laid
upon
him to cause him to swear, and the oath come before
thine
altar
in this house:
11:008:032 Then hear thou in heaven, and do, and judge
thy servants,
condemning
the wicked, to bring his way upon his head; and
justifying
the righteous, to give him according to his
righteousness.
11:008:033 When thy people Israel be smitten down
before the enemy,
because
they have sinned against thee, and shall turn again
to
thee,
and confess thy name, and pray, and make supplication
unto
thee in this house:
11:008:034 Then hear thou in heaven, and forgive the
sin of thy people
Israel,
and bring them again unto the land which thou gavest
unto
their fathers.
11:008:035 When heaven is shut up, and there is no
rain, because they
have
sinned against thee; if they pray toward this place,
and
confess
thy name, and turn from their sin, when thou
afflictest
them:
11:008:036 Then hear thou in heaven, and forgive the
sin of thy servants,
and
of thy people Israel, that thou teach them the good
way
wherein
they should walk, and give rain upon thy land, which
thou
hast given to thy people for an inheritance.
